WHAT DUPHALAC®
IS USED FOR
Duphalac® is used to treat
constipation (infrequent bowel
movements, hard and dry stools) and
hepatic encephalopathy (a liver
disease causing confusion, tremor,
decreased level of consciousness).
Hepatic encephalopathy can lead to a
hepatic coma
HOW DUPHALAC® WORKS
Duphalac® contains a laxative called
lactulose. It makes the stool softer
and easier to pass, by drawing water
into the bowel. It is not absorbed into
your body.
BEFORE YOU USE DUPHALAC®

called 'galactosaemia'.
•
You have a blockage caused
by anything else but normal
constipation, digestive
perforation (ruptured bowel)

Do not use Duphalac® if any of the
above applies to you. If you are not
sure, talk to your doctor or
